Plus what you haven't factored in new owners and that tend to lead to a change in the dugout most times plus they want a data lead approach in recruitment. 

Didn't realise you were big Chris Wilder. 

I stand my comments about the Cleverley sacking at Watford. Hope he does well at Plymouth. Chance for him to build something there

Doesnt mean that the decision was correct. I mentioned before about a growing trend of data nerds overruling managers who actually know what intangibles are requires to build successful teams. Xg and the rest of it wont factor that in.

I know you will say "but thats how football is now" but I am questioning whether its always a good thing.

Wilder is a bell end.

I dont get why you are so personally invested in Cleverley to the point where you angrily wish teams that sack him to be relegated and hope he does well at his new club rather than share the ambivalence that everyone else will have.

I think Rob Edwards to Boro isn't a strange appointment. 

Gerhard Struber going to Bristol City, is a move I don't get. Deffo think they could have done much better

Sellas to Sheffield United is a surprise move but The Sheffield United owners want to move to data lead recruitment approac. I surprised they are sacking Wilder to be honest

Sellas took over at Hull with them rock bottom of the championship and he kept them up. Did a good job there shame Hull owner didn't stick by him. 

They'd already spent £30m, I'm guessing they expected more than a 21st place finish.

(Disclaimer, I don't know the full in and outside of their business)

Burnleys fixture release gives us some clues as to Rovers fixtures.

Usually when Burnley are at home, Rovers are away and vice versa for policing purposes.

Therefore using this logic

Home - Weekend of November 8th (closest to 5th November) for 150th Anniversary, New Years Fixture, Last game of the season

Away - First game of the season, Boxing Day,

Another clown who should be nowhere near ownership of a football club . Wednesday banned from making ANY signings for the next three windows.

As it states 'fee restriction' I took that to mean they can sign players but maybe only free or low value signings. I recall something similar with us when we were under an embargo and I think there was also a limit we could pay new signings.

Sounds like us, but it's our owners that put us under said restrictions, not the governing body.....

Sheffield utd replacing wilder with a manager that failed badly at Southampton is a bizarre appointment 

 

Edit. I got him confused with the Southampton manager from last season.

The only exception to that ruling would be if the club had fewer than 23 players in their senior playing squad, in which case they would be allowed to bring in a free transfer or free loan without breaking the embargo.

Like I have said that its isn't a surprise that Sheffield United new owners want to now start changing things and bring in their own head coach choice which is most likely after a change of ownership, very rare it doesn't after a change of ownership. 

I don't know alot what king data lead approach they want to bring or whether they done this at other sports clubs if they owned any or other businesses.

Sellas kept them up and that was the aim when they were bottom of the league when he took charge of his first game and in the dug out. I think Hull should have build on what they were doing under Sellas, instead Hull owner went his own way and he did it previously with Rosenier sacking and last season was mess for them

When we went into an embargo under Bowyer we could only sign free agent under 10k and loan players in but no loan fee could be paid. 

I think Rovers should be looking to sign Anthony Musaba from Sheffield Wednesday who we could probably get cheap around 1m for the right wing signing we need
